Call for Papers

Following the tradition of Optical Network Design and Modelling conference, ONDM 2014 will address cutting-edge research in optical networking, as well as topics relating optical networking to the other areas and disciplines, such as Software Defined Networking (SDN), integration of optical and wireless networks or the role of optical network for the future Internet design.The scope of the conference includes but is not limited to the following topics:

Optical network performance modelling

Advances in Optical Network Theory

Transparent and translucent optical networks

Routing and spectrum assignment and flex-grid optical networks

Optical networks for future Internet design

Optical network control and management

Energy efficiency in optical networks

Optical network survivability

Novel architectures for optical routers and switches

Optical networks to support cloud computing

Software defined optical networking

Optical access network architectures and protocols

Techno-economic analysis of optical networks

High speed optical LANs including optical wireless networks

Field trials, new applications and experiments in optical networking

Convergence of optical and wireless networks

Security and privacy in optical networks

Authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished research results, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in the area of optical network design and modelling.

All papers must be submitted as PDF files, which should not exceed 6 pages in double-column IEEE Transactions style. Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore digital library. For paper templates and further instructions on how to prepare your manuscript, please consult the IEEE Author Digital Toolbox.

The accepted full papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore. Accepted full papers will be submitted for indexing to multiple abstract and indexing partners.
Authors of a number of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to a Special Issue of the Springer Photonic Network Communications journal.
